A news anchor receives an e-mail about her weight and she responds publicly (and very boldly) on the air.

What do you think about her response?

    There are at least 10 other threads on here about that exact topic right now. You should be able to find a lot of opinions on this if you search the threads the last few days for those topics.

    Yes, I've seen it. And I say good for her standing up for herself and showing you don't have to be a victim of bullying!!!

    I've seen that. Kudos for her to reacting calmly. It's one thing to critique yourself. But to tell someone they have an obligation to lose weight because of people seeing them? Where is that person's letters to the shows with anorexic-looking personas?

    If people are going to insult due to weight, please have the intelligence to realize that if we're bigger, we generally are aware of this. We're thicker, not dumber.

    Dumbass letter writer.

    That's what I was thinking.

    Then again, maybe they weren't on here when the other 141 people posted it.

    No, I wasn't saying you were a "double post", I was talking about myself, my response posted twice because I hit post reply a few too many times.
